Well it's a really good short. Heck, you might even come around to liking The Dark World more as well (not because of the short, but because you now own the movie and might watch it again and have a better reaction)!

You can choose to redeem it through iTunes, Google Play, Vudu (which I hope means it becomes available as a regular Ultraviolet title, because that's what I chose), Amazon, or something called Disney Anywhere.

I'm actually hoping you're right about the latter. The same thing happened to me with IM2. I still find it the weakest in the trilogy but no longer outright hate it.

Having gone to both Target and BB today, I was stunned to see this movie's blu pretty much sold out at both locations - forget the exclusive packages, they were even sold out of the regular versions in one day. That's pretty nuts these days, right? It's like people are buying way more than they did 2-3 years ago, but stores aren't stocking like sales have increased.

Hey, at this point, whatever moves units of physical media. I didn't think it was that great either, but clearly audiences like it well enough and the Marvel name sure sells these days.

Picked this up at Walmart tonight for $18.96. After I bought it, I noticed an "Only at Walmart" sticker on the front that says:
Was this supposed to be a 3D exclusive, or did it come with all copies of the blu-ray? I got the standard, non-3D one, and it included a code.
Looks like I'll have to set up a VUDU account...
Exclusive bonus content:
"Loki the God of Mischief" with purchase of this 3D Blu-ray Combo Pack
Must have VUVU account to use code inside. Expires 08/25/2014

You guys weren't kidding about "All Hail The King". It's fantastic. I might even prefer it to excellent "Agent Carter".
I was watching the main feature earlier (had to stop it 36 minutes in as I'm tired from work) and must admit I was enjoying far more than when I saw it at the theater. The same issues are present, dragging the feature down in my eyes, but I was shrugging them off more readily. I suppose being unburdened by the shackles of expectation help considerably (as had been the case with IM2).

Marvel, you can send me my check any time.

Re: Thor: The Dark World - 2/25/14
Got the BD from the Disney Movie Club. Needed to use up to that commitment. But... Holy fuck. AHTK was fucking awesome.
They better add to that bit. They ended it right where they wanted to salivate at the information you already had.
Fuck. I... Think that may have been the best One-Shot. Which almost doesn't say much cuz they've all been mediocre, while slightly interesting. EXCEPT for Agent Carter... Who really needs her own show cuz she's that much more interesting than that SHIELD piece of crap. I hope that little news bit of that being a possibility does happen cuz her short ended with a very interesting lead into bigger and possibly better things. Plus...Howard Stark and Dugan... Love it.
After seeing AHTK, I really don't know why they don't make One-Shots for theaters. I'd love to see the better quality stuff like AHTK and AC before a Marvel movie. Though... It would suck if it wasn't good too. I'd be game for stuff like this being played before the movie.
